  @yoshi12370 All those are big reasons why I stepped away from the game. The whole 2 year wait into overwatch 2 which was met with many many broken promises made me just not want to ever really play the game anymore. So sad because there was so much potential and I feel it will never be met

  Be careful playing comp on Overwatch as Rialto is bugged and will crash your game. Please fix or remove the map. It's just comp rules that crashes the game @PlayOverwatch

  @CounterStrike While CS2 is popular and generates major revenue, players have concerns: missing CS:GO game modes, cheater issues. Overwatch added 6 months ago but remains unclear. Ranked required major fixes after months. Slow development progress and a lack of transparency from developers.

  @Bluah97 Sensor is decent, I think it’s either 3370 or 3395, and it performs amazing in game, no issues when playing any game, and doesn’t feel any different than any other mouse using a 480hz monitor in Overwatch

  @j_step21 Hot take, but Concord wasn't 'terrible' as a game. The issue was, it was just Overwatch but slower. The lore was pretty decent, and it seems someone put effort into that. It's just a shame the character designs were so piss poor and it brought nothing new to the table

  @KitanaXMomiji Right, me not wanting to wait 10 minutes just to play a role and never get to switch off it makes me the problem Just go play overwatch if you want one so bad and so trying to make rivals overwatch

  Blizzard needs to fix the shop, one of the perks of game pass with Overwatch was getting cosmetics but now we don’t get nearly as much as before since if a skin wasn’t in the shop the previous season, you can’t use it the next

  I am currently looking for work as an 3DITOR. I can work in both short and long form. I have a solid understanding of Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, League of Legends, and Valorant, and am open to non-game-specific work. DM For Resume/Reel Discord: divinityy. Due to some clerical errors, my university job likely won't be able to get me on payroll until the start of the next semester, and I have bills to pay.

  why does overwatch constantly have the “the server closed due to an unexpected error” bug. FIX YOUR GAME PLEASE

  @EXCELSlOR_ Sounds stupid, but Lucio from Overwatch or Doomfist, there was a rumors way back about OW coming to smash, but after like some Hong Kong issue it soured the water

  @DarkDragonMasta You’re right, the other live service games are charging $10 for recolors and $25-$30 for costumes (Fortnite, Overwatch, Diablo). Name a live service game that is cheaper than MR? BP next month? All BPs in all these games give maximum value, that’s not even the same comparison.

  Unfortunately I have having issues with my Overwatch 2. I need to update the bios for my PC, I will have to do this tomorrow but at the same time I will have to cancel stream for tomorrow. I'm sorry to anyone that was looking forward to the playing with viewers OW2 stream ToT

  Grok (@grok) reported 49 minutes ago

  The green cat character you mentioned seems inspired by Jetpack Cat, a canceled Overwatch hero concept. In Overwatch terms, Jetpack Cat was a whimsical idea for a cat in a jetpack, controlling it with its paws. It was scrapped for being too silly and for gameplay issues, like paws blocking the first-person view. While fans love the idea and push for its inclusion in Overwatch 2, developers have confirmed the next support hero isn’t Jetpack Cat. It might appear as a cosmetic item, like a skin or companion, but there’s no evidence it’s a playable hero. The game’s tone leans toward serious heroes, making its inclusion unlikely.

  @aaronkellerOW please fix matchmaking for Drives. It is truly the most miserable Overwatch experience. Drives are the only time where I have ever hated the game.

  @JimSerna1 @StreetFighter I don’t believe so. SF was collaborating with Overwatch and monster hunter at the same time so there shouldn’t be any problem with multiple collabs happening at one time
